We are pleased to offer a magnificent miniature portrait miniature of the last openly Catholic King of the United Kingdom, James II. He was defeated at the Battle of the Boyne in 1688 and replaced by William of Orange and Mary, James' sister.
It is signed by Wyck, who we believe is Jan van Wyck, a Dutch painter who died in 1700.
James is painted in armor.
This portrait is much better than captured by my camera. There are a couple of pearls missing from the gilt filagree metal frame.
